DESCRIPTION:***Registration Closed*** MyInvolvement pages are for in-person
  attendees only. To register for the online session\, please use the Micro
 soft Forms link:Participants that are not part of the McGill Community are
  also invited to register with the Microsoft Forms link.In this 4-hour wor
 kshop\, participants will be introduced to the basics of programming in Py
 thon. Students will journey from the beginnings of creating variables and 
 performing simple mathematical operations to writing code that can perform
  fundamental tasks and wrapping this code into functions. Participants wil
 l learn how to write the important building blocks that make up complex pr
 ograms.https://forms.office.com/r/VMLySTzQmiBy the end of this workshop\, 
 participants will be able to:Store data in variables and collections.Perfo
 rm basic operations on these data.Use control flow and loops to write powe
 rful code.Define functions to create repeatable units of behaviour. Pre-re
 quisites:Basic computer science knowledge is strongly recommended. Attende
 es should be comfortable with the following terms: memory\, CPU\, variable
 \, control flow\, loop\, list\, collection. Some of these concepts will be
  briefly defined\, but prior knowledge is an asset. No prior programming e
 xperience is required to attend this workshop (although familiarity with a
 nother language may be helpful). To fully participate in the exercises in 
 this workshop\, attendees should have a working Python installation and ei
 ther Jupyter Lab or another IDE that can open Jupyter notebooks\, such as 
 Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Alternatively\, examples can be run in Googl
 e Colab online (requires a Google account). A document will be circulated 
 to help participants install Python and set up the environment. **IMPORTAN
 T NOTICE: Attendance for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows is sub
 sidized by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. All other attendees such as 
 undergraduate students and interns are required to purchase a ticket to co
 ver organizational and staffing costs. To complete your registration\, you
  must e-transfer $10 (undergraduate student/trainee) $25 (staff) or $100 (
 faculty) to workshop-micm [at] mcgill.ca within 24 hours of RSVP'ing to th
 is event. If we do not receive your e-transfer\, you will have given up yo
 ur spot.Online Event InstructionsSee Instructions
